Hi Michael

 

After migration from cvs to SVN,the revision graph showing as follows

 

				
	
Branch

  
		
672

  
	
 


 571

--

Branch

  

672

  
--

 600

 

 

Same branch is created from two different revisions. How can we correct
this?

 

Thanks & Regards,

Dinoj D

I don't know what revision graph you are referring to.  But in CVS, each

file has its own ancestry.  So when cvs2svn converts a repository

consisting of multiple files, it tries to find a repository-wide

ancestry that is consistent with all of the file ancestries, but it does

not always succeed.  It might have to add files to already-existing

branches, use multiple source branches when creating a branch, etc.  You

are probably seeing something like that.

 

If you think that what cvs2svn is doing is incorrect in your particular

case, then please submit a full bug report following the procedure

described in the FAQ.
